"They're not going to stop protesting until you resign"

A very popular French current affairs programme, Le Petit Journal on Canal+ covered the events in Iceland over the past couple of days and featured images from the protests and an interview with Financial Minister Bjarni Benediktsson last night. 

The French reporter asks the Minister amongst other things, "Is that what you call democracy in Iceland?" and tells him, "They're not going to stop protesting until you resign."
